NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- Many students at Yale University said they are outraged after a Harvard comedy show poked fun at the killing of graduate student Annie Le.
The Harvard student comedy news show called "On Harvard Time" filmed the video "Why Did I Choose Yale?" The video is meant to mock a Yale admissions video for prospective students. But one part of the video has been edited since it was uploaded to YouTube.
The new line is, "What happened to the original line in this video?"
However, in the original video, the actor playing the prospective student asked the tour guide, "What happened to that girl that got murdered and stuffed in a wall?" after which the tour guide quickly changes the subject.
The video is referring to the 2009 killing of Le. Her body was found behind a research lab wall.
The person police said killed her, former lab technician Raymond Clark III, pleaded not guilty to the crime.
Clark is awaiting trial.
The video also blasts New Haven's crime rate and a recent incident at a club where police used a Taser on students.
In response to the video, the Yale Daily News ran an editorial on Wednesday that said the video creators exercised "gross insensitivity" and "to poke fun at real suffering is inexcusable."
The Yale/Harvard football game is Saturday in Cambridge, Mass.
